National Curriculum

National Curriculum

1. Old Curriculum

   • No real curriculum as such, but certain subjects schools followed
   • Still no real curriculum, schools taught more subjects.1967 education act introduced and Plowden report written
   • 1967
   • 1904
   • First official national curriculum for secondary schools. Influenced by the Taunton Report, 1968
     • Curriculum for Primary schools introduced in 1989
   • 1988

2. New National Curriculum

   • New programmes of study for maths and english
   • Introduced to years 2, 6 and 10 later than all other years of study
   • Very specific, and states what children should have learnt by a certain age
   • State schools legally have to follow this curriculum

3. Other Points

   • Most Schools across the UK are becoming academies
     • These schools, legally do not need to follow the NC, but have to follow a set subject base.
     • Some people have also started setting up free schools, these follow similar rules to acadmies

4. How we got to our presentation idea...

   • Chose our group and looked at a list of potential ideas
     • Looked into 3 ideas and decided we were most interested in/ knew more about the National Curriculum
